"Qi Xi?"

"Qi Xi!"

Qi Xi came back to his senses, looked at Qingyi with some apologies, and on the way to leave the stronghold to meet Qingyi and the others, he was a little absent-minded, and he was distracted more than once or twice when synchronizing information. "Ah, I'm listening, your analysis of Ye Qingmian's ability makes sense, hmm. ”

"What's going on?Why do you look so out of shape?" Qing Yi frowned, when he met, he found that Qi Xi's state was not right, but he didn't expect it to be so serious that it would make him wander frequently.

"At the beginning of the virus, Ye Qingmian introduced it in detail to a native of this world yesterday. Qi Xi said.

"The natives of this world can enter our stronghold?" Bobograss was surprised.

"It looks like it's okay, and the candidate needs to bring it in. ”

"Wait a minute, that's not the point. Qing Yi interrupted Bo Bo Cao, who was about to continue asking, and looked at Qi Xi, "You tell me in detail." ”

Qi Xi opened his mouth, but he didn't know where to start, Ye Qingmian said a lot, obviously he had a very deep understanding of the beginning, and he could completely present it in front of others. But I've only heard it once, and I don't know much about many theories, so I don't remember much at all.

"It's hard for me to repeat the exact words, so let's just roughly follow my understanding. Initially..."

Antarctic ice sheet.

In front of the headquarters of the expedition, a flying machine fell from the sky. A middle-aged man who looked very capable on the outside walked out slowly, surrounded by several entourage. Not far away, Professor Wang, who had just been released from quarantine, led a team to greet him.

"Hello Professor Wang. The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and smiled warmly, "I am the head of Mayor Bai's think tank, Hirono Ping." ”

"Hello Mr. Hirono, the Antarctic is extremely cold, let's talk inside. Professor Wang politely led Hirono and his party to the base.

As he walked, Hirono asked, "Professor Wang, this report will be jointly released by Red Umbrella City and Qingtu City, and the venue will be set at the Sky Theater in Qingtu City, and it is expected that 10W people will be present at that time." ”

"The Sky Theater is so large-scale, when did we all have this kind of treatment?" Professor Wang was a little flattered, although he knew in his heart that this was the political consideration and need of the mayors of the two places, but being able to give a report at the Sky Theater, which was famous throughout the Phantom Blue Star, still made Professor Wang's heart stir.

"Professor Wang doesn't need to be presumptuous, this discovery is an important step in uncovering the history of Phantom Blue Star, and in the future, we can simulate the appearance of Phantom Blue Star tens of millions of years ago based on the initial research..."

"By the way, Mr. Hirono, there is one thing that you may not know, after research, it was found that insects originally carried a virus, and we also named it Primordial. ”

"Huh, a virus?"

"Don't be nervous, this virus is harmless to humans and can't even survive in the human body. It seems to be a virus species unique to the Phantom Blue Star in ancient times. ”

Hirono Hira breathed a sigh of relief, "It's harmless, it's harmless." ”

Professor Wang opened the gate of the base and led the group to the depths, after the gate was closed, the cold and wind were isolated, and the body was much more comfortable.

"The virus is very fragile at first, and after the insects are initially unfrozen, if not protected, the virus will be activated from dormancy in about three or four minutes, but will die in about ten minutes. It is contagious, but after about two minutes of entering the human body, it will die because it is not adapted to the environment of the human body. ”

"Oh, that's right. Hirono nodded, but was more concerned about whether the virus would bring any value in the first place. Business value? Political value? "By the way, Professor Wang, the theme and content of the report should have been decided, right?

"Of course, of course. Professor Wang opened a few lanes along the way and led the crowd into the large conference room.

After everyone sat down, Hongyeping politely said a few words, activated the document in front of him, the projection appeared, and the text was erected in the air and kept scrolling upward, Hongyeping read carefully, nodded from time to time, and was very satisfied with Professor Wang's writing.

Ten minutes later, Hongye Ping turned off the projection and gave Professor Wang a thumbs up, "Admire, Professor Wang, to be honest, before I came, I was still thinking about how to persuade you to change the content of your speech in a big way according to our intentions." I didn't expect it, I didn't expect you to really think of us, this manuscript is written by me, and that's it. ”

Professor Wang waved his hand politely, "The content of this first report meeting is generally more conceptual, and there are more ideas and macro things. Mainly because of the time, we haven't been able to get into the deeper research yet, so the more professional content may have to be put on the next presentation. ”

Hongye Ping sighed with a smile and pointed his finger at Professor Wang, "Professor Wang, if you go to politics, your achievements will not be lower than now!"

"Where. ”

"By the way, I heard that Professor Wang has recovered from a serious illness and is feeling better, right?" Hongyeping asked with concern, "Professor Wang, this report meeting is the top priority of the two cities in the near future, and you can't have any problems with your body." ”

Professor Wang shook his head, "When you get older, your physical problems will come out, and you can't resist tossing." ”

"According to the provisions of the Phantom Blue Protocol, the human race was set to live an upper limit, but this was an old treaty born out of the historical circumstances of the special period at that time. Mayor Bai has been working to abolish this treaty, and Mayor Bai told me privately that it would be a pity for mankind if a talent like Professor Wang was bound by the lifespan limit of the Phantom Blue Protocol. ”

Professor Wang's heart jumped, "The question of whether to open the upper limit of human life span has indeed been very controversial. ”

"But even if the upper limit of life expectancy is opened, not everyone can afford to enjoy it. Either way, the resources and money expended are not affordable for ordinary people. Mayor Bai has always told me that if he can succeed in the election and become the next leader of the Phantom Blue Star, after the abolition of the "Phantom Blue Protocol", the first batch of people to use science and technology to extend their life for free must be a valuable talent like Professor Wang. After Hirono finished speaking, he looked at Professor Wang with burning eyes, carefully observing the latter's reaction.

Professor Wang coughed and waved his hand to signal several colleagues and assistants around him to leave the conference hall. Hirono Ping smiled and asked the entourage to visit the scientific research base on their own.

"Mr. Hirono, there are no outsiders here, let's open the skylight and say something, what do you need me to do?"

Hongye straightened his body, "Professor Wang, you also know that this expedition, whether it is equipment, funds, or policy support, is fully promoted by Red Umbrella City and Daewoo Communications. However, because of the violent incident in Red Umbrella City a few days ago, it was very unfavorable to Mayor Bai's campaign, and in order to relieve the pressure, he jointly released this report meeting with Qingtu City, which has been in a state of competition. ”

"Qingtu City was very interested in the initial situation, and it is said that a research team was quickly assembled and is waiting for the first samples of insects. Professor Wang, you specialize in paleontology, and you will definitely be biased towards the initial research. The initial research is a huge undertaking, and if you want to completely unravel the entire secrets of this ancient creature, you will certainly not be able to do it alone. ”

"So on my trip, in addition to contacting you about the briefing, I also have another task, which is to represent the Department of Biology and Medicine of Daewoo Communications, and I hope to cooperate with you to comprehensively develop and research the beginning, whether it is the insect at the beginning, or the virus at the beginning. ”

Professor Wang seemed to understand something, "We have now cooperated with the Daewoo Medical Department in some fields, and we have also asked the help of the first few data to be analyzed. ”

"Professor Wang, your team discovered that initially, according to the convention, your team has the right to develop and research for the first 20 years, and no other department or team is allowed to intervene in this field without authorization. So what we hope is that you can hand over this right to Daewoo. Of course, that doesn't mean we want you to give up on your initial quest, you can still do what you want. And we can cover all of your research costs for the next 20 years. ”

"If Mayor Bai becomes the next leader of the Phantom Blue Star Alliance, you and your family will definitely be among the first batch of people to open the life limit. At the same time, we will also use our resources to build Professor Wang into a rising star in the scientific research community. After Hongyeping finished speaking, he looked at Professor Wang with some unconfidence, for fear that this kind of old-fashioned scientific researcher would have a bad temper and drive him out.

However, Professor Wang seemed calm and did not seem to refuse the deal, so Hirono continued, "But you also know that regulations are regulations, and there are many teams without professional ethics, even if they do not have authorization, they will develop illegally in private. Therefore, I would like you to go to Qingtu City this time and replace the insect samples used for the display with models. Initially, other instances of insects are to remain here, and all insects collected are to be initially sealed and transferred to Daewoo headquarters. ”

There was a long silence in the room.

Professor Wang spoke slowly, "I heard that Daewoo asked Old Man Cai of the Medical Department to resign from the post of Minister of Science and Technology of Red Umbrella City last month in order to avoid suspicion?"

Red Umbrella City.

On the other side of Qi Xi, Yin Liu, Qingyi, and Bobo Cao had ugly faces, and they couldn't think too much about Ye Qingmian's affairs, because the initial information made them very stressed.

"Isn't this just the second choice of reincarnation? At this stage, even capable people are rare, why did this kind of thing appear in the beginning?!" Qingyi said angrily but helplessly.

"Maybe it's because Ye Qingmian is. Qi Xi said with emotion.

"So is it completely activated now?" asked Bobograss nervously.

"Not yet, the initial outbreak will manifest itself differently depending on the world, different civilizations. But for the reincarnation game world we are in, according to Ye Qingmian's previous experience, there will be an incubation period of about 24 hours, and then there will be a full-scale outbreak in the human body, and irreversible and extremely unstable genetic mutations will occur in a very short time, and then die quickly. Qi Xi recalled Ye Qingmian's conversation with redemption, and at the same time, with his own narration, he once again experienced the initial horror, "Ye Qingmian analyzed, now the beginning of Antarctica, should be in a critical state. If I'm not mistaken, another image you can see in the stronghold, the research project of another scientific research team on black holes, may be the key to breaking through the critical state in the first place and completely exploding!"

Opposite Qi Xi, the holographic projection of Qing Yi and Bobo Grass glanced at each other stiffly, and Yin Liu crossed his hands in front of his chest, which rarely made people see the nervous mood.

"How's that research on black holes, what's the progress?" Qi Xi asked.

The corners of Qingyi's mouth twitched, his eyes closed, and his facial muscles were slightly distorted, "Two days." ”

Qi Xi involuntarily rubbed his face with his hands, "That report meeting in Qingtu City will also be two days later, right?"

"I'll make sure. Qingyi took a deep breath and asked seriously, "Once the virus is infected in the first place, it will definitely die, right?"

"......" Qi Xi recalled for a moment before speaking cautiously, "According to Ye Qingmian, the mortality rate is 99.97%. ”

"And what about the remaining 0.03%?"

"It can live, but there will be uncontrollable, irreversible, unstable, hereditary genetic mutations. ”

Qing Yi hesitated for a moment, and tried to translate Qi Xi's words in plain language, "Monster?"

Qi Xi nodded with difficulty. Ye Qingmian also mentioned that the virus was initially resistant to high temperatures and extreme cold, could be transmitted through air and water, and could survive independently from the host for more than 300 days.

"It's desperate. Qing Yi smiled, the pressure was so high that there was a sense of relief that the jar was broken. "This reincarnation game is so open-ended, there are almost no rules, and we still don't know what the 29 survivors are about. According to you, once the outbreak broke out initially, we would definitely not be able to avoid it, and it would be a dream to hold on until the 30th day. ”

Ye Qingmian said that in the early stage of the initial outbreak, it may not be so powerful, and it should gradually evolve with the upgrading of this world's response methods. ”

"Don't sleep lightly at the beginning of every game, I feel uncomfortable when I hear this name. Bobograss said irritably.

Qi Xi smiled bitterly, "You say, should we report this matter to the government? Maybe with their participation, we can hold off the initial offensive and hold out until at least the 30th day." ”

Yin Liu raised his bitter hand and pointed at Qi Xi, "It's good that you decide, the three of us are wanted criminals." ”

"I'm the only one who says will anyone believe it? Now the mayor of Red Umbrella is waiting to give him the first points to add to his campaign. ”

Yin Liu was unmoved, "With the addition of our three wanted criminals, he will believe it?"

Qi Xi gasped and rolled his eyes, "It's the same." ”

"So..."A hint of murderous intent flashed in Yin Liu's eyes, "The scientists who study black holes, what will happen if we go and kill them?

"If it was so simple, Ye Qingmian would have done it a long time ago. Qi Xi shook his head, but suddenly his eyes lit up, "No! Ye Qingmian doesn't know the activation condition, that's information that only your current camp knows!"

Theater of the Future.

The tall and dark Eight Sealed Brute Dragons walked in from the outside, and smashed Ye Qingmian with a punch to show friendship, but was blocked by Ye Qingmian with a layer of ultra-solid air, "How is it?"

"Good!"

"Huh, how much?"

"Thirty!"

Ye Qingmian narrowed his eyes, "It's good that I'm not a person who deserves my duty." ”

Suddenly, a cold voice appeared in Ye Qingmian's ears, "Camp announcement, the future camp candidates come into contact with the treasury of this camp, the camp ability is activated, and all the future camp candidates improve the danger premonition instinct." For faction-specific information, please check the base. ”

Ye Qingmian felt a light above his head, raised his neck, and saw a projection appear in the sky above the stronghold.

"The next news, the humidity regulation in the city's Da Chi District is abnormal due to human reasons, and it is currently being urgently repaired..."

"It seems that Li Wuji and Feng and Xinyang have succeeded. Ye Qingmian looked up carefully for a while, "This is tomorrow's news..."

"Awesome, awesome, great. Bai Dots came out of the game warehouse and looked up at the news with great interest, "Don't say it, tomorrow's news looks fresher than today." ”

"Huh. Ye Qingmian sneered twice, "If you think about it, the ability of the camp on the other side of the camp now is estimated to be physical strengthening, and the camp information may be something that is currently happening, maybe it is related to the initial content." ”

"Why?" Bai Diana was unconvinced, "Although this is tomorrow's news, we didn't mention the beginning." ”

Ye Qingmian didn't care about the white dots, and continued to say to himself, "Then the ability of the camp in the past may be able to see the more important things in the past." ”

At the door, the sword was too light and ran in like a gust of wind, "I heard that our camp's ability has appeared? ”

Ye Qingmian was just about to speak, when the sword was too light, he suddenly screamed in shock. Bai Diandian pulled the sword too lightly, allowing him to concentrate on it, "Look, this is tomorrow's news, interesting, right?"

"Eh, Ye Qingmian, the news said that your little girlfriend went to Qingtu City with the delegation of Daewoo Communication. The sword was too light and shouted.

"Ha, look at this Ye Qingmian, her father in vain, I'll go, it's really stumbling. Bai Diandian sneered and pointed at Mayor Bai and said to Ye Qingmian.

"Ye Qingmian, look, the land in Qingtu City is actually all blue, and the real Nima is disgusting, as if it is rotten. The sword was too light, and his mouth was crooked with disgust.

"Oh me, there are rains all year round, what kind of life? Bai Diandian commented on the weather in Qingtu City in surprise. "Hey, where are you going? You're going out? Then you can help me bring some food." ”

"I'll bring you two a hammer!" Ye Qingmian muttered as he walked out, leaving the Future Theater, and his ears were finally quiet.

"Xingxi?" Ye Qingmian sighed heavily, "Why are you here again, didn't I tell you very clearly?"
